Inspiring Poetry

10 years of using Poetry to spread the message of Peace

Using the spoken word, to convey a message has for some time allowed many feelings, experiences and views to be expressed ... Poetry is mentioned in the Holy Quran, which states that some people can use their God given poetic gifts to further the cause of truth and lead righteous lives. Poets for Peace was setup in 2014 to provide a platform to inspire others through poetry. Our events intend to present a variety of inspiring English Poetry from a variety of inspirational Poets, and we hope their words will touch upon your hearts, helping us to realise the beauty contained within all of our faiths. .
